Think of it in the overall sence, Engine is an air pump. The better you get it in and out the more power your engine can make. The potential of an added tune on top of the gains from the intake makes it much better.
Kind of like how you loose boost pressure on forced induction trucks when you install higher flowing heads, but still make more power. The airflow potential is there now, now he just needs an 90mm LSX

I don't think its to bad money wise, especially for the guys who want to stay N/A. I know that I am about the same as Billy, except I did somethings differently. I payed $500 for my FAST manifold, then I modded a truck waterpump.
For the guys who are staying N/A, I say its a good mod.
One thing I would like to see if the LS2 car manifold would actually have more usable power for the truck guys, It seems to peak 6400

Yesterday was a good day with the DA peaking just under 500. It actually was a little better back on the 12-11 outing which was about 400. I don't think that was enough difference to matter much. The track was a little off at first yesterday but came around after some rubber was laid down.
I'm anxious to see some dyno numbers now Billy!

Your thinking about it backwards. Your tuners and stall can do it for a little less, but $700-800 for that type of gain is CHEAP!!

But think about this... You'd be lucky to get these sorta gains outta ported heads alone. Some cases you may. We all know how pricey ported heads can be.
4 tenths from an intake swap with more in it... Wait till someone throws down a FAST 90mm opening on one of these head/cam 6.0Ls...
I think it might be funny to type in LS6 intake in the search key and go and say "your wrong" to all of those who preached how incredible the truck intake really is.
... Just dickin around.
